Welcome to Sarawak, Miri is an oil town and that is why it is hot. Very Hot.

[@bearybear66]

hi Myers the older generation maybe might not so familiar with utube and some of them are sceptical & intimidated with recording.. thus the cold respond that u received from the watch shop.. dont take it to the heart, we as local also somtimes treated the same when trying to take pic or video 😅 enjoy ur stay.. keep sharing.. take care

[@myertravels]

It happens I get it thank you 😊

[@mohamadzaiddiehj.bujang4544]

Assalamualaikum wbt brother myer. If u happen to be in Kuching Sarawak, my wife & me would like to invite you over to visit one of the heritage house in sarawak. If you are interested in this idea we will be happy to show you kuching town & show you kuching hospitality.

[@RUHappyATM]

In search of food in Sarawak? Let me give you a tiny hint. If the stall has Chinese characters in it, it's usually non-Halal. If the stall has Malay words, it's usually Halal.

[@RoseDo-vn9pv]

Thankyou for sharing another amazing video of miri. 25th dec,2023 today people are celebrating christmas in the city, so town area not so many pples around, because some pples going back to their village, or going out station to other places visiting. Some pple don’t respond when you talk to them because they don’t understand what you said, it is not because they are not friendly. The place you had been visited was miri town centre, there are many other places you not yet visit, like niah cave national park, world heritage.

[@thefirstdivision_main26]

Welcome to state of Sarawak. We are the biggest, the multiculturals, the Most autonomous region in Malaysia. Anyway enjoy your adventure in "the land of the Hornbills"✨

[@robertho991]

big respect for people that visiting Sarawak.

[@bungaialoevera]

7:10 DBstory is one of Malaysia's influencers. That painting is that of Niah Cave. It's about an hour's drive from Miri. 9:28 No, it's NOT because of Chinese influence. Sarawak is a non-Muslim majority State and Dayak ethnics are the majority. We're mostly non-Muslims therefore we eat pork. That is why you see less halal shops as compare to the peninsula. Chinese are concentrated in towns and cities, that is why you see more of them there. 10:29 To them you're invading their privacy. So, please ask if a shop owner is okay with you taking videos of their businesses/shops/merchandise because not everyone is okay with it. Ah. You tried Coffee Code! What I know about them is that they try to source their beans from locals. Not all of their beans, I believe.

[@ranirani-nf2sz]

Myer, you walk into every street & corner just wanting to give your audience the best view & it’s history. Really awesome..

[@taschisim2255]

Thanks for coming to Miri Myer, for your info, yes Sarawak does have alot of chinese influence, but the majority of the people here consists of a race called Iban, an indigenous group in Sarawak. We are very much different from West Malaysia, so as you can see, there are many non-halal food coffee shops, markets, so it's best for you to do some research or ask a local, or a friend who have been to Miri before you step into the markets and realising ohh there is pork sold everywhere. There are so many shops which serve halal food, mostly Malay restaurants. The stalls at the market which you walked away from are where i have meals occasionally, and the vendors, they do not talk much as they are business oriented, they just do their daily routine and tourists rarely visit markets.

[@myertravels]

Thanks for the info!

Just a tip, if you go to any stall, just declare yourself a muslim to ease the owner and for your own good

[@azrulaznizan]

aaah you're visiting my hometown and it's very cringy watching you saying hi to everybody because Mirian are not very social but a very nice ,charming quaint little Malaysian town Enjoy

if im not mistaken, i believe i cleared your entry to miri from brunei at the entry point. Enjoy your trip at Miri btw.

[@myertravels]

Yes! Thank you!

[@hydeejoeses]

I suggest u should be aware...u should check the food shop is halal or not..bcs sarawak is the only majority christian state in Malaysia and ofcourse there will be a lot of non muslim food shop...i hope this message will help you

[@MarkymarkFeehilyFans83]

It's strange that he is a muslim who wants to look for a place to eat in chinatown,there is rarely any halal food.

[@metzmatu8409]

In Miri the Muslim food outlet will always be next to the Chinese food outlets No specific area to be Muslim food shop. You only need to ask muslim or non muslim food serve. There even 1 or 2 small muslim stall in Chinese food shop.

[@Blorb-v3y]

That takes me back, worked in Miri 10 years ago

[@JayBrav0]

You are wearing 'Brunei' t shirt. They see Brunei travellers here everyday. Probably they thought you are one of Indian or Bangladesh immigrant workers coming from Brunei

[@kimchiba4570]

I went to sarawak kuching 33 years ago.. Miss the place

[@robrosy]

lol I am from Sarawak and have visited Miri a million times.. I can confirm without a doubt it DOES NOT look like San Francisco, apart from the fact that it is by the sea.

[@cooknengr]

True that...

[@SzeKuiYong]

Same, me from Sarawak

[@MojoZ20]

Somehow, im kinda sensing some disconnect in the chat up attempts. Maybe (highly probable) because you look Indian ethically, and the Chinese locals automatically assume you are an Indian ethnic from Peninsular side (KL) of Malaysia. Thus, when you asked the food vendors about chicken or pork stuff, there was some ambiguos moments/hessitant answers - since a local would have known these and even avoid the foodcourt (if they know the primary food specialities available at the foodcourt). Pretty sure things would have been different if they know you're a traveller from America.

[@MarkymarkFeehilyFans83]

Very honest words.

[@sebastianhamilton5892]

I also think he was quite rude with how he approached these folks: initiating conversation with people not looking in his direction, asking about their personal business, asking needless open-ended questions, initiating conversations in English despite repeatedly telling viewers he believes the language is not widely spoken there, asking if he could pay *after* eating, prolonging intrusive conversation with the obviously-offended "watchmakers", intruding on people's businesses then walking out of because they were "too expensive" (despite making $$$ on KZbin), etc. Meanwhile, his full beard and his "outsider" ethnic origin likely didn't help things. All in all, this person seemed to have little or no "situational awareness" or interest in fitting in.

Look for halal food store, if your wish to avoid pork. In Malaysia most of Chinese restaurants serve pork, unless they specifically advertised to be halal.

Hi, thanks for coming out with this interesting/helpful video. I'd like to ask: if you don't want to own a car, will the local bus/train system allow you to reach most places within the city and even the outlying areas at most times of the day/night?

1:05 this is a Chinese temple we called “tuah pek gong”. The temple will close 6pm every day. Since the oil boom of Miri in the early 1900s, the town population increased rapidly before an unknown epidemic began to struck the town which resulting to the deaths of many of the town population.[1][3] The local Chinese residents believed the epidemic is caused by evil spirits roaming around the area with a Chinese man named Chan Chak began to calling a monk to appease the spirits with spirit-pacifying ritual being carried out near the Miri River with an altar being placed there.[3] With the epidemic began to subsided following the ritual, the local Chinese residents constructed a temple near the river to revere Tua Pek Kong as a gratitude to the latter in 1913.[1] The temple stays until this day where it survived the Japanese bombings on the town during World War II. It was renovated in 1977.[3] In 2017, a new paifang has been constructed for the temple.[4]

[@Rynlie]

4:24 “pasar” means market, this is a Malay word. Actually here is quite closed with one of our Chinese market, usually local we called “open air”

[@Rynlie]

7:12 this is a mural of Niah Cave, is about 1 hour 30 mins away from Miri town, The cave is an important prehistorical site where human remains from 40,000 years ago have been found.[14] This is the oldest recorded human settlement in east Malaysia. More recent studies published in 2006 have shown evidence of the first human activity at the Niah caves from ca. 46,000 to 34,000 years ago.

Food definitely is what most people seem to focus on, but I like the performances (like the water puppets in Vietnam, dancers in Cambodia, etc.) and the historical sites (My Son, Teotihuacan, Angkor Wat, etc.). To each their own I guess :) But yes, food tends to dominate most KZbin videos I've seen of travelers.
